  • Mini Guide to Rovering
    BPSA MINI-GUIDE TO ROVERING What is Rovering? Simply put, Rovering is “a brotherhood of open air and service.” In concept, Rovering was originally intended to be the final stage in Scouting for youths who came up through Wolf Cubs and Scouts. When a Scout reached age 17, he would transition from his Scout Troop to a Rover Crew of young adults. A Rover Scout could then further his training in citizenship by learning new skills to help him focus on a meaningful career while at the same time rendering service to the community. In a practical sense, Rovers get to do a lot of fun things, most of which happen outdoors. We get to play the same game of Scouting that kids get to do. We camp and hike. We learn any manner of outdoor skills, including pioneering, signaling, astronomy, and animal tracking, to name a few. We learn things in patrols just as the kids do. We also render service to the community at large via projects designed by the Rovers themselves. Some who join will also (or eventually) be Scouters, and the fun and adventure will make them better leaders. Others join simply to be a Scout, and that’s fine, too. The backbone of our program is the book called Scouting for Boys, written by the founder of the Scouting movement, Lord Robert Baden-Powell. It is a must-read for anyone who is lured by the idea of Rovering. If you were a Scout as a youth, it will give you an idea of what the movement was like when it was young.

  • 3Rd Epsom Scout Group Official History
    3rd Epsom (St. Martin’s) Scout Group History 3rd Epsom Scout Group Official History Version 8 Compiled 2018 This history has been compiled from such records such as St. Martin's Church magazine, minutes of Group committees, AGMs, log books and the history of Epsom and Ewell District. Many thanks are owed to David Faulkner who has compiled the majority of the history up to 1992 together with other people associated with the Scout Group, particularly the Collins family, Leslie and Edith Clark, Michael Arthur, Shirley Quemby (nee Moore) and Richard Ascough. We hope you enjoy reading this history and feel that you then know a bit more about the Group as the longest continuous registered Group in Epsom and Ewell. Inevitably there will be omissions and errors, therefore if anyone has any additions or corrections, however small, they would be very much appreciated. Richard Ascough Group Scout Leader Version 8 Page 1 3rd Epsom (St. Martin’s) Scout Group History The 1990's This new decade started with so much happening that it is difficult to know where to begin. The programme of the refurbishment and modernisation of the HQ was now in hand and work had already started. The total cost was estimated at £24,000 and towards this the HQ Committee had "saved" about £5,000 (mainly because fundraising had continued very profitably but little work had been carried out while the lease was negotiated); and the Church had generously donated £3,000. Another benefactor now appeared in the Mayor of Epsom & Ewell, Councillor Robert Lewis who although he had no positive connection with the Group (other than that the Mayor's Secretary, Maureen Chartres, was a former parent) adopted St.

  • GSL Info Leaflet (Booklet)
    What should we look for in a potential Group Scout Leader? The biggest myth about who is suitable as a GSL is that they must have had experience of Scouting themselves! The induction, training and on-going support that a new volunteer receives will help fill in this background. So instead, we are looking for someone who: Is a people-person, able to motivate, support and lead a team of adults. Is a good time manager (able to balance personal life & other commitments). Is a good planner and can communicate in a timely and effective way. Wants to see more young people experience what Scouting can offer! The initial training provided by the Scout Association covers: the fundamentals of Scouting, first aid, skills of leadership and working with adults, administration, and how to support and manage Scouting as a GSL. How have others recruited a GSL? Here are some examples of how other Groups are recruited a GSL: A meeting of Beaver parents was organised and a dad volunteered himself for the role not a common occurrence but it does happen! Also, experience has shown that many mums make ideal GSLs! Following up former leaders (but they need to get up to speed on what Scouting is like today!). Someone from the Group Executive moving into the role because they see the value of the role. A local teacher keen to have better links between the school and Group. A member from the sponsor of the Group (e.g. minister or other adult from the sponsoring church). Experienced leader from another Group who was keen to take on a new role.

  • Understanding Your Role As a Girl Scout Leader Volunteer
    Understanding Your Role as a Girl Scout Leader Volunteer As a Girl Scout Leader volunteer, you’ll serve as a partner and role model to girls. You’ll also work closely with a co-volunteer, because two volunteers must be present at all times when working with girls, and at least one of those volunteers must be female and not related to the other adult. This is an important distinction that bears repeating: Men can serve as troop volunteers, but an adult female who is not related to the other volunteer must be present at all times, and only in cases of emergency is a girl to be alone with only one volunteer. Remember to always check the volunteer-to-girl ratios in the “Girl Scout Activity Safety Standards & Guidelines” section of Safety Activity Checkpoints and the “Safety” chapter of Volunteer Essentials. In More than ‘Smores: Success and Surprises in Girl Scouts Outdoor Experiences, the Girl Scout Research Institute (GSRI) has described the role of Adult Volunteers: “Because everything girls do outdoors in Girl Scouts must be supported by an adult, these results speak indirectly to adult volunteers and their preparation. To get girls outdoors more regularly, Girl Scouts need adult volunteers who encourage and promote outdoor experiences. Communicating to volunteers and parents that casual outdoor experiences are effective ways of giving girls opportunities to build competencies and try new things may be the key to opening the gateway for all Girl Scouts to participate in the outdoors on a more regular basis.” (2014, p.27) Responsibilities of the Volunteer Every adult in Girl Scouting is responsible for the physical and emotional safety of girls, and we all demonstrate that by agreeing to follow these guidelines at all times.
